A doctor has provided 1 answer

Back pain: Pain in that area could be from lung problems, rib or scapula pathology, impingement of a nerve running between 2 ribs or by a bulging disc or spur in the vertebrae of the midback or by early shingles with a rash impending. A blood clot, if present, in an arm vein could travel to the lungs. See your physician if symptom persists. Appropriate testing will be done.
